Vaxlous Notes. 



The Retail Florists' Association of 

 San Francisco seems to be getting its 

 money's worth for the $2,000 which it 

 set aside for local advertising purposes, 

 to be expended before the end of the 

 year. The public is showing sympathy 

 with the coming Sunday closing, which 

 begins January 9, 1921. Cards announc- 

 ing it are being given out by the flo- 

 rists' stores. The artistic half-page ad- 

 vertisements in the Sunday newspapers 

 are bringing results in various ways. 

 For instance, the latest issue of the 

 weekly published by the San Francisco 

 Advertising Club contains the follow- 

 ing: " 'S.iy It with Flowers' is not 

 only one of the most beautiful, but ef- 

 fective and original campaigns ever put 

 over in Snn Francisco. The florists 

 have surely graduated from the ranks 

 of the ethical and are putting over a 

 campaign that has started the city to 

 talk. Congratulations, Mr. Florist; 

 'Say It with Flowers' to others, that 

 they have the power and value of adver- 

 tising. If your beginning is a forecast 

 of your future, others will have to step 

 lively to keep the pace. Ad. Clubbers, 

 isn't that a dandy slogan — 'Say It with 

 Flowers'?" 



Many local florists were busy with 

 orders for funeral pieces for the three 

 police officers slain in a recent battle 

 with gangsters at Santa Rosa. Sheriff 

 James Petray, of Sonoma county, was 

 remembered with flowers by his many 

 friends, some of them San Franciscans. 

 Miles Jackson and Lester Dorman, San 

 Francisco officers, lay in state Decem- 

 ber 8, at the city hall. Among the
